Emotional intelligence: what are we talking about?
The concept of emotional intelligence was first promoted in 1990 by psychologists Peter Salovey and John Mayer. But it was the American psychologist Daniel Goleman who popularized it in 1995 with his bestseller “Emotional Intelligence”. It is characterized by the ability to understand and master its emotions, but also those of others. For Daniel Goleman, we express emotional intelligence through five skills:
- Self-awareness: being aware of your feelings and using your instincts as much as possible in decision-making. For this, it is important to know yourself and have self-confidence.
- Self-control: knowing how to manage your emotions so that they do not interfere negatively in our life by overwhelming us.
- Motivation: never lose sight of your desires and ambitions to always have goals, even in the event of disappointments, unexpected events, annoyances or frustrations.
- Empathy: knowing how to receive and understand the feelings of others, being able to put yourself in the place of the other.
- Human skills and the ability to relate to others: interact with others without vehemence and use his skills to get his ideas across smoothly, resolve conflict situations and cooperate.
Furthermore, when you master (more or less) these five elements, you show intelligence on a human and social level.
